I received a call from 215-360-3471 at 10:43 this morning.  I did not answer for two reasons: the first is that the caller ID read "PHILA PA", and I do not know anybody in Philadelphia; the second is that I never pick up calls that show a generic, ambiguous or obviously spoofed ID.  A few moments of online investigation revealed that the phone number belongs to Fatimah Lorén Muhammad, a candidate for representative in the Pennsylvania house.  However, when I listened to the voicemail that was left, it turned out that the call  was a vote-seeking solicitation from Elizabeth Coggs.   So, one mystery was replaced by another: instead of wondering why a candidate for state office in Pennsylvania was calling a Wisconsin phone number, why was a Wisconsin candidate calling using a Philadelphia phone number?

I can only conclude that there is some kind of deception involved and that Ms. Coggs was trying to trick me into picking up a political call that I would have otherwise ignored. That's dishonest campaigning, and it makes me less inclined to vote for her than I might have been, and, were I a resident of Philadelphia, less inclined to vote for the owner of that phone number for aiding and abetting this deception.  If a candidate can't be honest in her campaigning, how can I expect her to be honest while in office?

Yes, Elizabeth Coggs is full of hot air

Will take the ti,e to report unrecognized phone calls seems to be the highlight of my day now that I have been diagnosed with FTD.  None the less the libs can try all they want to get me to switch my vote.  This guy bleeds blue and only conservatives will get my vote how strange that a call like that would come to Illinois.  Keep trying!!
